CounterPick

Overview

CounterPick ("we," "our," or "the tool") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit our website. By using CounterPick, you agree to the data practices described in this policy.

CounterPick is a free, client-side educational tool. The vast majority of the tool's functionality runs entirely in your browser — no account is required, no personal data is submitted to our servers, and no user profiles are created.

Information We Collect

CounterPick collects minimal information. Specifically:

• Usage data via Google Analytics (if enabled): We may use standard web analytics to understand aggregate traffic patterns, such as which pages are visited most frequently and which countries visitors come from. This data is anonymized and does not identify individual users.
• Browser-local storage: The tool may store your hero selections or preferences locally in your browser using localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to us.
• Advertising data via Google AdSense: CounterPick displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.

Cookies

Our website may use cookies for the following purposes:

• Analytics cookies: To understand how visitors interact with our site (e.g., Google Analytics).
• Advertising cookies: Placed by Google AdSense to serve relevant advertisements.
• Functional cookies: To remember your preferences within the tool (e.g., selected role filter or map).

You can control cookie settings through your browser's privacy settings. Disabling cookies may affect some tool functionality.

Third-Party Services

CounterPick uses the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:

• Google AdSense — for displaying advertisements. See Google's Privacy Policy.
• Google Fonts — for loading web fonts. Google may log font requests. See Google Fonts Privacy FAQ.
• Google Analytics (if applicable) — for aggregate traffic analysis.

Children's Privacy

CounterPick is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through our site, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

Data Security

Because CounterPick collects minimal personal data and operates primarily client-side, the privacy risk to users is very low. We do not store user credentials, payment information, or personally identifiable information on our servers.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of CounterPick after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new policy.
